Google Cardboard and Gear VR can not be compared to stationary VR.

Google Cardboard compared to an experience like Oculus/Vive/PS VR is like comparing a chinese made 600 bucks scooter with an Bentley Mulsanne (experience wise not talking about the price here)

Both have their uses however they dont compete for the same consumers.

Gear VR would be a Smart Car.

PS VR seems to shape up exeptionally well. And could be the best bang for the buck option out of the three. Even superior in some fields.

The screen Sony uses has higher res then the pentile screen of Oculus vive despite having less resolution.

As Sony magically pulled out an OLED 1080P Full RGB screen 3 subpixels per pixel while oculus and vive just have pentile with 2 sub pixels per pixel. Effectively having less Subpixels with 2 Screens than Sony.

Non gaming VR experiences will be the draw for the mainstream however I think Sony should get first a the gamers aboard with some long term compelling experiences. An MMORPG would be great.
